Question

2.

A
Triangle RST has vertices R(-1, 1), S(3, 1), and 7(3,-4). What are the coordinates of the image of RST after a translation 4 units to the left an
down?
R(-5, -1), S3, -1), and 7(-1,-4)
R(-1,-1), S3, -1), and 7(3, -6)
B
D
R(-5, 1), S-1, 1), and 7(-1,-4)
R(-5, -1), S-1, -1), and 7(-1,-6)

Answer 1

R(-5, -3), S(-1, -3), and T(-1, -8)

============

The coordinates of Triangle RST after a translation 4 units to the left and down can be found by subtracting 4 from the x-coordinate and subtracting 4 from the y-coordinate of each vertex.

Given the original coordinates of R(-1, 1), S(3, 1), and T(3, -4), if we move 4 units to the left and down, the new coordinates will be:

• R(-1 - 4, 1 - 4) ⇒ R(-5, -3)
• S(3 - 4, 1 - 4) ⇒ S(-1, -3)
• T(3 - 4, -4 - 4) ⇒ T(-1, -8)

So, the correct answer is R(-5, -3), S(-1, -3), and T(-1, -8).
